Dear Data

Famous quotes containing the words dear and/or data:

    Thou hast never in thy life
    Showed thy dear mother any courtesy,
    When she, poor hen, fond of no second brood,
    Has clucked thee to the wars, and safely home
    Loaden with honor.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    This city is neither a jungle nor the moon.... In long shot: a cosmic smudge, a conglomerate of bleeding energies. Close up, it is a fairly legible printed circuit, a transistorized labyrinth of beastly tracks, a data bank for asthmatic voice-prints.
    Susan Sontag (b. 1933)
